OUCH..!!!!! THIS POST NOT FOR THE SQUIMISH.. :)

ABOUT A MONTH AGO.. MY HUSBAND,

THE "GENERAL MANAGER"

WAS MANAGING A GEAR BOX AT WORK.

ABOUT 1/2 HOUR AFTER A SAFETY MEETING

ON PINCH POINTS MIND YOU...

WELL...

THE GEAR BOX SLIPPED OFF THE SUPPORT

AND YOU GUESSED IT..

PINCHED BART'S FINGER..

CUTTING IT ALL BUT OFF.

IT BROKE IN TWO

JUST PAST THE 1ST KNUCKLE.

HANGING ON BY A TENDON, NERVES

AND SKIN.

I TOOK HIM TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM.

WE WERE LUCKY THAT A HAND SURGEON

WAS CLOSE BY. HE DRILLED A PIN

STRAIGHT DOWN BART'S FINGER.

I GOT TO WATCH AND THE DOCTOR

EXPLAINED EVERYTHING IN DETAIL

WHILE HE WAS DOING IT.

THEN HE SEWED THE FINGER UP

AND TOLD MR. GENERAL MANAGER TO

GENERAL MANAGE FROM HIS DESK... :)

WE WERE LUCKY, WHEN THEY TOOK THE

BANDAGES OFF, IT WAS STILL PINK.

AND ALTHOUGH HE HAS AN INFECTION IN

HIS BONE AND LOTS OF SWELLING.

IT SEEMS TO BE OKAY.

TODAY THE DOCTOR TOOK THE PIN OUT.

I WANTED TO GO TO WATCH,

BUT WE WERE HAVING ROCK DELIVERED.

THE DOCTOR KNEW THAT MR. GENERAL MANAGER

WAS NOT MANAGING FROM HIS DESK

BY HOW BENT AND TWISTED THE PIN WAS.

HE IS NOW ON HIS 3RD ANTIBIOTIC

AND SHOULD RECOVER WITH HIS FINGER

INTACT.

AND HOPEFULLY HE WON'T FEEL HIS

HEART BEAT IN HIS FINGER MUCH LONGER...:)
